This spot really needs no introduction, as I’ve taken photos here every September for the past few years. Except last year, because I didn’t have any outfits that complimented the cherry blossoms. This year however, I had too many options so it was hard to choose! When The Seamstress of Bloomsbury released the new Rose…
Spring 2020
I had a feeling when I put up my last post that it would be my last A/W post for this year. And here we are… The sunhat is back and so are short sleeves. Although, as you can probably tell from the tan I’m sporting – I spent most of winter in the sun….
Prim Deco Plaid
The thirties is probably the decade that’s taken me the longest to figure out. And I don’t mean the hair, I’ve given up on fingerwaves and have accepted that I’m not going to have any luck getting a good set with wave clips. Not the ones that I have anyway… What I’ve struggled with the…
Rain or Shine
Those of you who live near the seaside – I hope you don’t take it for granted! We live a long drive from the nearest beach so it always feels a bit special to make a day trip. And obviously I have to take photos to mark the occasion, since that’s just how seldom we…
Agent Carter Vibes
A bit Agent Carter, a little His Girl Friday. That’s what springs to mind wearing this 1940s co-ord set by Collectif Clothing! Fans of Agent Carter might remember Peggy wearing a very similar outfit, so I couldn’t resist doing a little homage. I felt that a fedora would also be fitting since Peggy Carter wears…
Spider Hollow
I spend a lot of my time cursing that I’ve just walked into a spider web. This is a daily occurrence for me…I might be hanging out laundry, doing yard work, going for a walk…and I’ll walk face first into a spider web. And then I freak out and start patting myself down to make…
Pompous in Plaid
June 15th will be the second anniversary since we adopted Diago. Well yes, of course I keep the date marked on the calendar! For us it is a very special occasion to commemorate because the day we brought Diago home changed our life forever. I don’t know how we lived all those years without our…
Winter Woollies
Yesterday marked the start of winter here and I’m all in favour of the cold windy days that are ahead and the outfits that go with them. With the number of colourful trees I’ve been posting lately you would be forgiven for assuming that these are abundant where I live. Unfortunately though it could not…
Autumn Sunshine
If you don’t like plaid, well, you probably won’t like any of the outfits I’ll be posting here over the next few months. Because I love plaid. And seem to have accumulated a fair bit of it considering I don’t even live in a place that gets a lot of cold weather. When I bought…
The Raven
And here is autumn, in all its glory. The magnificent season that it is, blink and you’ll miss it. This year I’ve managed to time taking photos just as the leaves are at their most spectacular. I said earlier this year that come autumn I want to post some outfits that are darker than the…
